  1. Hi folks

    I am clearing house, and have 2 lever arch files filled with printouts of the discussions in RQ Digest back in the early days of the RQnet - includes details of The Gordayan IIRC (a wonderful hideous undead monster). The articles and banter catch a moment in time, so I am reluctant to just discard.

    If there is alot of interest I will prioritise people with a presence in the community who have a publication based interest.

    I will consider posting for the cost of postage - but they are pretty heavy, and I don't want to make money on this for obvious reasons. 

    I am about to go away for a few days, but PM me if interested. I live near Rochester in Kent, UK.

  3. Hi folks

    I am slowly offloading much of my roleplaying collection and it includes some items from back in the day - of most interest to people here I am selling A Rough Guide to Boldhome and Runemasters, as well as other items (including In Nomine, Superhero 2044, WHFRP). If you are interested, take a look at

  4. As a long time fan of the book (first acquired thanks to the strong recommendation of it in Bushido - the RPG) loving the new adaptation. They have made a number of changes from the book, but they work. Very good adaptation indeed. The actors of Blackthorne, Mariko and Toranaga deserve the plaudits they get, but Yabushige and Fuji are also portrayed brilliantly - Yabushige as the least zen of the Daimyo and Fuji brittly holding herself to her duty in the face of unimaginable loss.

    Superb.

  5. I have a copy that I won at auction at one of the Convulsion Cons in the 90's. One of the best such purchases I ever made. It's effectively a one shot with pre-gen characters who are seeking Thanatar initiation. 

    I used it as a dream induced Heroquest for Storm Khan initiation - the characters got to learn the true horror of Chaos from personal experience. They did follow the plot line, and died horribly, but enjoyed it and it informed their 'meta' understanding of chaos in Glorantha.

    I absolutely think it's of publication quality, and gives you a bit of Cthulhu/Glorantha crossover in terms of feel.
